what type of glass do you have? if you already own nikon, then nikon. if you already own canon, then canon.
if you don't own either, please see above ^.

if I was starting today I would get a d700
- MrDinky0
canon seems to have wide range of lens.
nikon i think has better lens but has limited range.- Canon L-series are super-premium, and I can say that even though I shoot Nikon.duckofrubber

where does Olympus, minolta, sony, lumix etc fit into the mix? are they a notch below nikon and canon?
what about lomo and other specialty cameras
- you won't be respected by other "photographers" if you show up with any of those.JG_LB
- btw lumix = panasonicJG_LB
- I respect any Lomo brandishing photog.. as long as the urban outfitters price tag is no longer on it....nicnichols
- MrDinky0
preference but none would compare and also range of lens available for those

like lvl said, go with the lenses you have.. also, the 700 is full frame, so you'd need matching lenses.. if you've already bought digi lenses, go with the D300...
..also that new D90 looks good, and shoots HD video as well

- see how they put the brunette in front of the canon (the smarter of the two). That should hint somethingimnotadesigner

in my opinion, the lower end canon dslr is a bit low quality in the build, image quality is kinda good. the opposite is true for nikon. when you get more high end, it's different. also nikon seems to be more expensive, probably why the build quality is better.

i'm debating which one to get as well. Some folks are pretty adamant about canon being the best, but no one has a clear reason as to why
- I hear its because the colour is betterimnotadesigner
- do you see people saying nikon is the best?ephix
- or heat. as it were.ephix
- crap! hear!ephix

Take the one you feel more comfortable with
Both of them are quality..

for years canon had a huge advantage in low light conditions, and nikon didn't have any full frame models. I think the perceived advantage is left over from then

Some stores here will alllow you to rent the camera for a day and subtract the rental price from the product if you decide to buy it. I'd recommend trying this if you don't have much experience with either.
I've been a Nikon user for years but they really fell behind in the digital landscape. With the releases of their newer cameras they are finally competitive again.
